The Hoary Goliath of Mastodon is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Goliath Tusk with a fair hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, enslaved workforce, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 10.715 billion Mastodons are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elephantine. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Mastodon economy, worth a remarkable 3,427 trillion kroner a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 319,924 kroner, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,866,458 per year while the poor average 4,598, a ratio of 623 to 1.
Citizens need a magnifying glass and color chart to distinguish between nearly identical brand labels, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, human resources employees have time for hobbies as harassment is designated "high praise", and anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mastodon's national animal is the Woolly Mammoth, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Norse Black Magic.
